🐐💩 Goat Tip from the Farmstead: Handling Mild Scours Naturally 💧🌿

Noticed one of your goats with a slightly runny back end but still full of energy and eating well? That could be a mild case of scours (diarrhea) — and quick action can prevent bigger issues! Here’s what we do at Simple Way Farmstead:

🔹 Step 1: Give Nutri-Drench
👉 Use Goat Nutri-Drench at a dose of 1.25 mL per 25 lbs of body weight
👉 Administer orally with a small syringe (before food if possible)

🔹 Step 2: Monitor Closely
✅ Watch their stool, energy level, and appetite for the next 24–48 hours
✅ Keep them hydrated — clean water is key!

🔹 Step 3: Add Natural Support
🌿 A few fresh dandelion leaves or a light electrolyte solution in water can help

🧠 Don’t panic! Mild scours often clear up fast with just a little support. But if things worsen, contact your vet or let us know — we’re always here to help our fellow goat keepers!
